Answer:

The answer is 0.023 moles of phosphorus

Explanation:

The 15-15-15 fertilizer is a fertilizer of great versatility, made with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, which makes it one of the fertilizers most used for fertilizer in the sowing plant, thus covering the crop requirements from planting. .

This fertilizer consists of 14.25% phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5). Therefore, we have to remove 14.25% at 10 grams of 15-15-15 fertilizer to calculate the moles of phosphorus. As follows:

Grams of P2O5 = 10 g x 0.1425 = 1.425 g

We calculate the molecular weight of phosphorus. We use the periodic table:

Phosphorus molecular weight = 2 x 30.97 = 61.94 g/mol

Now we calculate the moles of phosphorus in the fertilizer:

Phosphorus moles = 1,425 g/61.94 g/mol = 0.023 moles

A container of oxygen has a volume of 30.0 mL and a pressure of 72.5 psi. If the pressure of the oxygen gas is reduced to 28 psi
OLga [1]

Answer:

THE NEW VOLUME OF THE OXYGEN GAS AT 28 PSI FROM 72.5 PSI IS 0.078 L.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the oxygen in the container = 30.0 mL = 30 / 000 L = 0.03 L

Initial pressure of the oxygen = 72.5 psi =  1 psi = 6890 pascal

Final pressure = 28 psi

Final volume = unknown

First convert the mL to L and since both pressures are in similar unit that is psi; there is no need converting them to pascal or other standard unit of pressure. They cancel each other out.

This question follows Boyle's equation of gas laws and mathematically it is written as:

P1 V1 = P2 V2

Re-arranging by making P2 the subject of the formula, we have:

V2 = P1 V1 / P2

V2 = 72,5 * 0.03 / 28

V2 = 2.175 /28

V2 = 0.0776 L

The new volume of the oxygen gas at a change in pressure from 72.5 psi to 28 psi is 0.078 L.

Five gases combined in a gas cylinder have the following partial pressures: 3.00 atm (N2), 1.80 atm (O2), 0.29 atm (Ar), 0.18 at
levacccp [35]
In order to solve the total pressure that is exerted by the gases, we need to use the Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. These are the calculations that you need to find out the total amount of pressure exerted to the gases:

3.00atm (N2) + 1.80atm (O2) + 0.29atm (Ar) + 0.18atm (He) + 0.10atm (H),
add up all of that, and the answer would turn out to be: 5.37atm.

What did Josef Loschmidt and Amedeo Avogadro Contribute to our understanding of basic molecular numbers, sizes, and reaction rat
mario62 [17]

From Avogadro we obtained a physical constant of matter which is Avogadro's number, and from both scientists we understand that elementary gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen were composed of two atoms.

<h3>What is Avogadro's number?</h3>

Avogadro's number, or Avogadro's constant, is the number of particles found in one mole of a substance.

The Avogadro's number is given as 6.02 x 10²³.

Summary of Josef Loschmidt and Amedeo Avogadro Contribution to chemistry.

  • Equal volumes of gas contain equal numbers of molecules,
  • Elementary gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen were composed of two atoms.

Thus, from Avogadro we obtained a physical constant of matter which is Avogadro's number, and from both scientists we understand that elementary gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen were composed of two atoms.

What is the molarity (M) of the following solutions?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The molarity (M) of the following solutions are :

A. M = 0.88 M

B. M = 0.76 M

Explanation:

A. Molarity (M) of 19.2 g of Al(OH)3 dissolved in water to make 280 mL of solution.

Molar mass of Al(OH)3 = Mass of Al + 3(mass of O + mass of H)

                                      = 27 + 3(16 + 1)

                                      = 27 + 3(17) = 27 + 51

                                      = 78 g/mole

Al(OH)_3 = 78 g/mole

Given mass= 19.2 g/mole

Mole = \frac{Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

Mole = \frac{19.2}{78}

Moles = 0.246

Molarity = \frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ solution(L)}

Volume = 280 mL = 0.280 L

Molarity = \frac{0.246}{0.280)}

Molarity  = 0.879 M

Molarity  = 0.88 M

B .The molarity (M) of a 2.6 L solution made with 235.9 g of KBr​

Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mole

Given mass = 235.9 g

Mole = \frac{235.9}{119}

Moles = 1.98

Volume = 2.6 L

Molarity = \frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ solution(L)}

Molarity = \frac{1.98}{2.6)}

Molarity = 0.762 M

Molarity = 0.76 M
